Chapter 1088 Cap 1086: You Will Never Be A True God



Pov Kalistos (Demon Goddess of Death): 

I couldn't see that place at first, the corruption of that fool's mere presence negates my sight near that World Tree, I had to take advantage of those who carry my Blessing to use their senses. 

Zenos adapts well to that environment but doesn't go near his daughters, Silvia has received the Blessing of many Gods, perhaps even more than Zenos, and was also a World Tree, impeding her senses is ridiculous, she has never depended on them since the beginning In the beginning, Hela as a Genius Necromancer has senses that others are not able to match, perhaps she should teach Zenos and his Familiar Hinata something. 

Hinata was a disappointment, she had all the tools for that environment, but her lack of knowledge about her own power doesn't allow her to use her full potential, the only happiness is in her realizing this deficiency this time, I just hope she doesn't waste her time again. 

The fight was going very well in the mortal world, but I would like to know how the fight inside the Divine Realm proceeds that Lorraine dragged Sarturi, too bad her Divine Realm is still connected to the mortal world or I could go personally without the need to use indirect means. 

I can't see through my Champion either, he seems to still be waiting in the Shadows of Lorraine for the opportunity to take Sarturi by surprise, I've made the mistake of underestimating this fool in the past, he always takes the farthest path from his goal that exists while convincing himself that he is right, his obsession has destroyed his world and doomed many Souls. 

----------------- 

A young genius of magic in a world where monsters were numerous, but they did not have the strength that made them dangerous alone, thanks to that the world managed to develop easily, there was no lack of resources and therefore there were few wars, a world where the focus it was study and art. 

All it took was an Emperor on the edge of his life to ask one of my Priestesses for something that many others have asked for and that never seems to be enough, everyone always asks for the same thing, being more time to live, how could he not and was afraid to do something drastic that could irritate to me who embodies the concept of Death, he turned to something he could understand, Magical research. 

That Emperor started it but died long before discovering the result, centuries became millennia before that genius with a millennium of studies from a whole world on the same accumulated subject was able to find the answer, but there was a reason why no one arrived at this answer because it was necessary to do many things that should not be done. 

The boy was pure at first, but like many genius researchers, he became obsessed with what he was researching, any sign of danger his eyes found in his mind became just a path for his obsession to travel, the loss of his family over the years only increase his obsession with denying the natural end of all living things. 

When he found the answer his obsession exploded into arrogance and endless pride, as in any civilization there will always be those who fear my call and choose to take worse paths to avoid the rest I offer. 

I sent my Taboo Hunters after them, but they took it as a challenge rather than the warning I was actually giving, he spread the knowledge with the thought that he was saving his world from death, and my Taboo Hunters wouldn't be able to finish them all off a short time and my Church of Death was quickly seen as an enemy and wiped out in that world, help from any other world would be slow in coming at best, but it was the best I could do not having a Hero, Saint or Champion at the time. 

It was no surprise to see Souls corrupting themselves by erasing themselves from the normal world, those in power took the bodies of those in lower positions devouring their Souls, this strengthened the Soul's projection, but with each body taken the Soul's essence was lost until the to the point where it was no longer correct for them to be called Souls, their presence alone corrupted the surroundings which gradually devastated their world until there was nothing left but a barren desert filled with miasma. 

Even in the end they only blamed me, the genius of magic tried to further spread his ideals in denying death, his mind long since become as corrupted as what he still called his Soul. 

He got a Divine Fragment from one of the Gods of his world who fell along with the world and tried to become a God, his "Soul" was a vessel made having already lost its essence completely, but with all the Souls he devoured he became a large container capable of holding the Fragment of Divinity. 

He tried to invade this world which was the only one that had information due to Evil Gods who fled from this world to his only to be defeated there, he came to this world with an army of abominations and was sealed with the sacrifice of some, he didn't expect that he could come out stronger than when he came in and at such a bad time like this. 

Many problems over time are returning in the current age, this is not only happening in this world, it is happening in many others as well, but this world has had more problems than any other, which makes the current situation only worse. 

--------------- 

I saw the awakening of one of Zenos' Familiars as a Titan, normally only Gods strongly associated with Nature have one or more Divine Titans among their servants, usually in place of Divine Beasts, but Zenos now has both. 

But my attention soon shifted from the battle taking place near the World Tree to the fight taking place in the God Realm of Lorraine when my Champion stepped out of her shadow right beside Sarturi when he was absent-mindedly crushing a Fairy King in one of his dozens of hands. 

"(Use the magic I taught you, my Champion.)" (I) 

I speak to my Champion to remind him of his training, a Magick that was made by my Church to go against those who corrupt the Souls of the innocent. 

"< Death Magic: Damnation of Souls >" (Ivan) 

I make a tiny part of my loss pass through my Champion for this magic that needs my power and Authority to damn a Soul, 59 magic circles each with multiple layers connected in a specific pattern merge into a single Spiritual eye in the middle of 7 gray rings that stare directly at Sarturi who stands immobilized as countless hands rise from his body opening wound after wound as echoes of voices are heard from his Aura, echoes of those who were denied the rest of death as their Souls were consumed by Sarturi. 

"(Now call upon me, my Champion.)" (I) 

"< I am the Scythe and Voice that embodies the power of that which is the final resting place of all Life, may your power and will fill this body to bring an end to those who go against your calling, Goddess Kalistos >" (Ivan) 

As my Champion he shouldn't need to use my prayer to call out to me, his willingness to share his body with me was enough, but he wasn't the most faithful of my believers and is being my Champion for a little while, one day he will realize how we really are connected and until then I will wait. 

As soon as he called out to me part of my power and consciousness is extended into his body to the extent that his vessel can handle it, I can feel that vessel's connection to Zenos, I could easily break that connection, but he seems to want to keep it and so I will respect what he asked of me. 

When I open my eyes I readjust the shape and position of his bones while changing the shape of his armor, his Spectral Body fills with my power as it takes on a form more like me while my hair and features become translucent. 

I just stand there looking at Sarturi as I check the limits of my power in this body, I also see Lorraine with part of her face burned and one of her arms crushed, pushing away so many other Fairy Kings or Spirit Queens with help from Stella who is in better condition. 

"KALISTOS!!!!!" (Sarturi) 

"Don't scream, it's no use raising your voice before me, I warned you from the beginning how your journey would end." (I) 

"FILTHY GODDESS, YOU BRING ONLY MISERY AND DEATH!!!" (Sarturi) 

"HOW MANY FAMILIES HAVE YOU MADE SUFFER!? HOW MANY WORLDS HAVE YOU DESTROYED!? HOW MANY TEARS HAVE BEEN SHED FOR WHAT YOU CALL A GIFT!!!!?" (Sarturi) 

"The end is as natural as the beginning, because death exists that life has meaning, trying to deny death is also denying life, you fool." (I) 

Knowing better the limitations of this body, I use my Aura together with Ivan's to suppress Sarturi's Aura more and more, as he wants to be called now, not only suppressing his Aura but gradually annihilating his Aura with my Authority. 

"There were many paths to immortality, even though they were deviations from the natural path, one day would still lead to me, but you created a path that would annihilate anyone before reaching me and that I cannot allow or forgive." (I) 

There are immortal races like Vampires or with the ability to achieve immortality like some Demons, in the end, they can still be killed or live for so long that they wish for a rest in my embrace, in the end, immortality is never as glorious as they believe, but only the unlucky ones discover it the hard way. 

I feel his presence change, it is trying to drain the power of his servants to fight his doom, I use my power and Authority to strengthen the eye that condemns Souls, I also felt a barrier being raised outside Lorraine's God Realm that is in pieces, it seems to contain some of my power in this barrier, so I used some more of my power to strengthen this barrier knowing that it must come from Zenos or his allies. 

"I WAS SO CLOSE TO AN END OF YOUR TYRANNY, IF I ACHIEVED THE GODHEAD COULD..." (Sarturi) 

"Couldn't nothing, you will never be a true God." (I)
